I have photographed it in case it gets damaged; there is a company in Highgate that can make reproductions. We get the sunlight from mid-afternoons.bazzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794010156639774028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065667386668307918.post-956288863818053902017-06-28T03:30:35.427+01:002017-06-28T03:30:35.427+01:00I lived in a Victorian home for years and loved th...I lived in a Victorian home for years and loved the glorious stained-glass windows in the doors and front windows. In summer the light is spectacular.. in winter, or if trees grow in front of the windows, the light is duller.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065667386668307918.post-27275422091393336272017-06-27T08:59:06.178+01:002017-06-27T08:59:06.178+01:00Hilary: I wish it was MY tiling, but sadly not.

Give me an Edwardian house over a modern one one anytime! My own house is mock Tudor - another very common English style; maybe too common.bazzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794010156639774028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065667386668307918.post-85010652417501909962017-06-26T18:21:02.008+01:002017-06-26T18:21:02.008+01:00Arleen: I am in complete agreement with you!

There are also 'listings'; Grade II prevents any major appearance of a building for either architectural or historic reasons. Grade I listings would cover the interior as well.bazzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794010156639774028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065667386668307918.post-52693996802543361732017-06-26T17:15:06.004+01:002017-06-26T17:15:06.004+01:00Hello Bazza, Vintage pavements are among the rare...Hello Bazza, Vintage pavements are among the rarest of survivals, so it is nice to see the ones you feature. It seems that the word 'elegant' has passed out of builders' vocabularies, so it is triply important to preserve examples like this house in Baltham.<br />--JimParnassushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08958901307538141468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9065667386668307918.post-28197161421625837912017-06-26T13:59:21.729+01:002017-06-26T13:59:21.729+01:00Those are wonderful looking houses.

I always wanted to live in one and fifteen years ago had full intensions of doing so. Instead we moved into a newer modern house that looks like so many others. The reason being the cost and work and strict regulations from historical societies on any renovations we wished to do on these older gems. I am very happy where I live, but I often wished we had taken the chance to live in something crafted years ago and not mass produced.Starting Over, Accepting Changes - Maybehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032033918798053005noreply@blogger.com
